Hola, Forum. Hoping to get any info I can on an amp I aquired. It's a Heilman Laser 400 (solid state) & was purchased new in the 80's at Steel Guitars of Nashville. Only info I've been able to unearth is that it was built by Benny Heilman in Donaldson TN (he lived in Minneapolis prior to that). Anyone have any recollection of these? Desperately searching for a schematic to bring it back to life.

Thanks,
Pete

Check with Clem Schmitz in Mpls. If anyone would know, he most likely would. Ditto for Mike Cass & Ernie Renn.
